To make it easier for motorists to determine the length of trips in Maine along Interstate 95, the state Department of Transportation renumbered off-ramps last winter and spring. Exits used to be numbered from 1 to 63. The new number system identifies an exit's distance from the state line in Kittery. This will enable motorists to calculate distances between exits without having to look at a map. It will also eliminate the confusion caused by duplicate exit numbers in southern Maine, in which some exits on the Maine Turnpike and I-95 shared numbers.

To the right are the new exit numbers for I-95 off-ramps in the Bangor area.
